A SLIGHT Difference.

A Chinaman named All Wing was
sentenced at the Supreme Court on
Tuesday last. to pay fine Of $50
and costs, and to Imprisonment at
hard labor for six hours, having adj
mitted being in the possession of
opium. Fortunately for All Wing,
the date of his possession was q few
days prior to the PRONUNCIATION of
the opium law of 1886, otherwise
there would have been no alterna-
tive for the Court but to have SEN
fenced him to pay a fine of 81 900
and to Imprisonment at hard labor
for two years, this being the mini
mum punishment under the new
law.

The inaugural concert at the OPEN

promises to be grand affair. The
band pavilion is large and hand
some erection, rejecting credit on
the builder, Mr.. f. Wilhelm.

tern, being decidedly more comfort
able than the straightforward seats
of Emma Square. Their distribution

tastes are guarantee of convent
ence and comfort. A wide and we'll
made footpath around the outer
fence is nearing completion, this

Guards, also cornet soloist in the
celebrated Julian band. He was a
pupil of Professor Sass, the inventor
of the double tongued notes, and
whose daughter is we'll known in
San Francisco as Star-vocalist.

the memory of a great man, Admiral
Thomas, who, on the 3lst July,
1913, saluted the Hawaiian flag and
acknowledged the independence and
sovereignty of the Hawaiian Islands.

Its Sale for $3.50, 900.

Yesterday at 10 o'clock under decree
of the United States Court Mr. n. W.
Bowe, real estate agent sold at pubic
auction the rights, franchises.and property
of the Southern Telegraph Company.
After reading the decree of the court
ordering the sale, and the terms and
conditions upon which the sale would
be made Mr.. Bowe the auctioneer, read
a paper signed +. Lauterback, attorney
In which the writer announced that he
held as counsel $4,000 of bonds of the
Southern Telegraph, which he claimed
were valid claims and were in litigation
by appeal.
The sale attracted large crowd
/ Among the most prominent persons III
attendance were Messrs. Edward ,
Stokes. A. b. Chandler, Dwight Town.
send. Messrs. Doran and Merrihew, OF
/ New York.
Mr.. John S. Wise, as counsel for the
bondholders, directed Mr.. Bowe to state
that the lower court had decided against
the claim of Lauterback, and acknowi
edged that an appeal had been applied
for, which matter was pending.
Mr. Bowe announced that he was ready
to receive bids. Mr.. Doran, for the
Western Union, started in with bid OF
$3.50 ,00O Mr. A. b. Chandler, bid S275.-
900 for Mr. Ed Stokes; Mr. Dwight
Townsend bid 100000 for the Postal
Telegraph Company; Mr.Chandler raised
him $4,000; Mr. Doran followed with
bid of $4,000, Mr.. Chandler 800 600.
Up to this time the bids were made in
rapid succession There was lag when
Mr.. j. b. Pace, who was standing in rear
of Mr.. Bowe's office, stepped to the front
and bid S4600O0. As'sOon as this bid was
made Messrs. Chandler, Stokes, and Do
ran left; and after dwelling some time
and not receiving another bid, Mr.. Bowe
knocked the property out 10 James Is.
Pace, John S.Wise, and associates.
Immediately after the sale Mr. Pace
made the required first payment, $4,000,
giving his individual check for that
amount.
1t will be ninety days before the pur-
chasers will get possession. When they
do secure the property they will apply for
a charter, probably to the Legislature,
and will organize a stock company. Mr..
Pace states that it will be run as dis
tinCt corporation.
Who the associates Of Messrs. Pace and
Wise does not appear, nor is it matter
in which the public have any great con-
Germ. Mr.. Wise was, no doubt, repre-
senting the interests of General Malone.
1t seems positive that the Western Union
Company have not secured control OF
the line, and that was the principal mat
Ter in which the public (be ID were
vitality interested.

One Man Killed and Two Injured by Slid
ing Dirt.

ing Dirt.
For the past two or three days city
hands have been engaged in the con
struction of a culvert in the gully on
Eleventh street just north of Clay. The
banks of the gully are rather liable to
slip, being composed of ashes and other
trash.
Yesterday afternoon at 10 minutes to
o'clock the bank was suddenly seen to
move and begin to slide downwards. The
men took to their heels and all but three
succeeded in escaping. Jerry billiard,
6eorge BraxtOn, and Lee Graham (all
colored), city hands, were unable to get
out of the way of the mass Of dirt and
were caught under the immense weight
The other men went TO work at once
and in a short time succeeded in getting
out the unfortunate men. billiard was
found to be dead, BraXton had one of his
legs broke and his breast badly hurt, and
Graham was badly bruised but no bones
broken The two former were employed
as diggers and the latter as a helper to
the brickmasons.
billiard, the man who was killed, was
about 80 years of age, was married, and
lived on Moore street between Oak and
Hancock.
No one is to blame for the accident, il
being one of those deplorable events
which can be ascribed only to the hand
of Providence.

No Ouorum-No Meeting.

There was to have been joint meeting
of the Light and Finance Committees last
night to consider the plan of charging to
each department of the city government
the amount of gas used by same.
The justice of the plan is very appa-
rent. As it now stands those who do not
use gas in their houses pay nothing to-
wards lighting the streets and public
buildings. BY the new method it is pro-
posed to have this expenditure evenly
distributed amongst all the taxpayers.
Owing to the non-attendance of quo
rum no meeting was held.
